Whether you’re looking for a nudge in the right direction or a sneaky way to preserve your blemish-free record, you’ve come to the right place. Today’s puzzle has some quite random categories.
They’ll require a tiny bit of specialist knowledge. We’ll present these hints from the easiest category to the hardest, as prescribed by the puzzle itself – Yellow, Green, Blue, then Purple.
If you want today’s category hints, click below! These will not spoil the actual names of the categories but will nudge you in the right direction.
Today’s yellow category concerns words you’d use to describe huge numbers of things. Today’s green category has words you wouldn’t want to use when describing, for example, supporting beams, mineshafts, relationships.
Today’s blue category concerns rude ways to get the bill. Today’s purple category has words that may all follow a piece of human anatomy.
Herring Watch: There are lots of mouth noises, fasteners, and slang terms here – don’t be distracted and try to identify the core categories.
